Mozilla will not download messages from the weekend. Only receiving messages that are being sent while mozilla is running.

I recently downloaded Mozilla Thunderbird because I was working with Windows Live and it was so incredible slow... I couldn't take it anymore... it would take up to 3 hours to get emails and it was hindering my ability to work. I have a LOT of emails saved in folders... my first try I added account and it started importing the emails but stopped at 10k so I deleted mozilla and decided to instead manually import all emails by saving them on a file and then importing. Worked like a charm. All my windows live folders were in tact and I was getting new emails right away. Well I went home for the weekend closed down my mozilla... I'm back on monday morning and it hasn't downloaded ANY messages that would have come through between late friday and sunday (haven't received any error messages it just says no new mesages to download but I know that's untrue). Monday mornings I can usually expect up to 70 emails. I am only receiving messages that have been sent while mozilla has been open this morning. Can anyone tell me why this might be?

Thanks!

That seriously sounds like your getting pop mail on another device.

Log into the web maIL and see if the mail is n the folder pop under deleted
